DEVICE FOR SPRINKLING LIQUIDS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent NO. 564,021, dated July 14, 1896.'

Application filed August 5, 1895. Serial No. 558,188. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that we, ISAAC MAMAUX, of Pittsburg, and JOHN T. KELLY, of the city of Allegheny, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Devices for Sprinkling Liquids, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of our improved liquid-sprinkling device; and Fig. 2 is avertical section of the bottle, the sprinkler being partly broken away.

Our invention relates to devices for sprinkling liquids, and is more especially designed for use as a holy-water bottle, though it may be used for sprinkling plants or other purposes of this character.

In the drawings, in which similar numerals indicate corresponding parts, 2 represents a bottle designed to contain liquid, and into This sprinkler consists of a stem having a bulbshaped lower end which is eXteriorly roughened or grooved and is preferably made of gla-ss, though other materials may be used therefor, if desired. This sprinkler is secured to the stopper of the bottle preferably in the manner shown, the cross-shaped handle 4 having a downwardly-proj ecting post 5, which extends through the stopper 6 and is roughened upon its lower end portion, which portion enters a recess in the stem of the sprinkler and is secured therein by cement or other means. At the base of the handle, which is preferably of metal, is a metal cap 7, which is preferably integral with the handle and post 5, this cap tting neatly over and covering the upper end of the bottle-neck. The stopper may be made of cork, rubber, glass, or other suitable material.

The advantages of our invention will be apparent since the device is compact, simple, and may be cheaply made, the handle-stopper and sprinkler being combined into one piece, so that when the stopper is removed by means of the handle the sprinkler will retain upon its roughened surface a portion of the liquid within the bottle, which may then be sprinkled as desired.

XVe claim The combination with a bottle, of a stopper therefor, an external handle having a flange arranged to cover the stopper and top of the bottle and provided with a post extending through the stopper, and a sprinkling device of non-corrosive material secured to the post and having a bulb-shaped lower end portion provided with grooves or serrations; substantially as described.

In testimony whereof we have hereunto set our hands.
